Description: Essential Microbiology for Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science by Geoff Hanlon, Norman A. Hodges This text is an essential study guide for undergraduates studying microbiology modules on degree courses in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This text is an essential study guide for undergraduates studying microbiology modules on degree courses in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences. Written by two pharmacists each with over 30 years experience of teaching, research and publishing in pharmaceutical microbiology, it distills the subject down into the essential elements that pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists need to know in order to practice their profession, and it covers all the microbiology components of the Royal Pharmaceutical Societys indicative syllabus that is at the heart of every UK pharmacy degree. Much of the applied microbiology that a pharmacist or pharmaceutical scientist needs to know is unique: topics like the manufacture of microbiologically sterile medicines and their subsequent protection against microbial contamination and spoilage, the detection of hazardous microorganisms in medicines and antibiotics manufacture and assay are all covered here. Essential Microbiology for Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science Students displays material in an easy to-digest format and concepts are explained using diagrams, tables and pictures wherever possible. The book contains an extensive self-assessment section that includes typical multiple choice, short answer and essay-style examination questions, and a companion website to further test your knowledge from a selection of questions along with further links to relevant sites. Back Cover Pharmaceutical microbiology is a fundamentally different subject from clinical or biomedical microbiology. Whilst it has at its heart the science of microbiology and requires a full understanding of microbial structure and function, the applications are unique to the subject and include topics such as the manufacture of microbiologically sterile medicines, their subsequent protection against microbial contamination and spoilage, detection of hazardous microorganisms in medicines and antibiotics manufacture and assay. Essential Microbiology for Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science is not intended to give a comprehensive coverage of the whole subject of microbiology but instead to be an easily digestible outline of the most important features as applied to pharmacy and pharmaceutical science. Concepts are explained using colour diagrams, tables and figures wherever possible. It is an essential study guide for undergraduates studying microbiology modules on degree courses in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences. Written by two pharmacists each with over 30 years experience of teaching, research and publishing in pharmaceutical microbiology, it distils the subject down into the essential elements that pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists need to know in order to practice their profession, and covers all the microbiology components of the Royal Pharmaceutical Societys indicative syllabus that is at the core of every pharmacy degree. Essential study guide for pharmacy and pharmaceutical science students Information displayed in easy to assimilate format with numerous explanatory diagrams Full colour throughout Companion website with further reading, MCQs and further information to expand the text.
